A radiographic silver halide film has reduced yellow dye stain by including
a blend of tabular silver halide grains in the emulsion layers. The blend
of grains includes blue-sensitive tabular silver halide grains that have
an aspect ratio of at least 15, a grain thickness of at least 0.1 .mu.m,
and comprise at least 90 mol % bromide and up to 4 mol % iodide, based on
total silver halide. Substantially all of the iodide is present in an
internal localized portion of the tabular silver halide grains that
excludes the surface of the grains. The blend also includes
green-sensitive tabular silver halide grains that have an aspect ratio of
at least 20, a grain thickness of at least 0.07 .mu.m, and comprise at
least 90 mol % bromide, up to 1.5 mol % chloride, and up to 1.5 mol %
iodide, based on total silver halide. The molar ratio of silver in the
blue-sensitive silver halide grains to the silver in the green-sensitive
silver halide grains is from about 2:1 to about 6:1. The tabular silver
halide grains are dispersed in a hydrophilic polymeric vehicle mixture
comprising at least 0.5% of oxidized gelatin, based on the total dry
weight of the polymeric vehicle mixture in the emulsion layer.
